You've got it exactly right. The problem is that a template used for memory
allocation doesn't set things up right for longword alignment on a PA-RISC
processor. Here is a diff of (your source directory path here)/irsim/src/irsim/mem.c

diff mem.c mem.c_orig
93c93
<     double      align[1];
---
>     int      align[1];
102c102
<     double          align[1];	/* dummy used to force word alignment */

>     int          align[1];	/* dummy used to force word alignment */
